Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Tour to Lakshadweep via Samudram package was an excellent experience. The ship, excursions to the islands, water sports, food were very nice. Most of the things were excellent so let me tell what we didn't like or can be improved.
1. While ship starting from Kochi at 7pm there is no need to complete boarding within 11am and waste entire day for tourists. Tourists were told to come within 9:30am but there was no fan in the outside seating area. At ship, after lunch, it's straight to dinner, in between that there were nothing except a cup of tea/coffee and some biscuits. Nothing much eatable was available at paid store and that, too was closed too early. We were hungry like anything.
2. Food option in ship is very limited. While 90% tourists are from other part of India, there is no point of serving south Indian breakfast 3 out of 4 days. Puri-Sabji, pav-bhaji, bada-pav these options should also be there.
3. We started on children's day. Something could have been arranged for the kids, some activities or gifts.
4. At Kalpeni island, there were no shampoo/soap provided, towels were also dirty.
5. Disembarkation on last day was not properly organised like other days. It was not clear when exactly final deboarding will happen.
6. At Kavaratti, Scuba photo/video quality was not upto the mark compared to the price taken. Taking photos of participants is not enough, it should also capture what participants are seeing.

Lighthouse of Kalpeni which has a height of 37 meters( 121 ft) was a prominent landmark flashing in the distance as our ship "M.V.Kavaratti" approached Minicoy Island.WE tourists after embarking from the ship were driven to "Koomel Beach Resort" on Kalpeni Island.Spotted ornamental fish and petted a few sea cucumbers while snorkeling near the beachExcellent water clarity. On Pittii island approachable by motor boat all tourists were given individual snorkels free of charge which was included in the package tour. Excellent sighting of Ornamental and medium size fish along the Coral storm boundary wall enclosing Pittii island that gets totally submerged at high tide. If you are fond of aquatic sports and the sea make a trip to Lakshadweep islands mandatory .

If you are true lover of nature must not miss this. All Irelands Kalpeni, Aggati and Minicoy are superb. Samudram is well organised and managed. Clean cabins, Veg/Non-Ceg/Jain food options are available. Tea/Coffee with Sugar or without Sugar are available. Boarding on first day is tiring, no other activity. Second day onwards are great. All Crüe members are awesome, great, very polite. At each Ireland you have washroom, you will be given clean towels, soaps. You will get guides at time of doing activities.
We also got very cooperative our co-travellers, all were very good, supportive. We have seen people of all age say from 1-75 years. No much walking but yes need to climb stairs in ship.
Watching Sunrise, Sunset and Dolphins in green water oh awesome, unforgettable.

We visited this island on 29th march 2021 alonwith my wife,son and daughter.We booked Samudaram package of SPORTS department of Lakshdweep Government.We came here in M.S.Lagoon cruise being operated by UT administration.There is no jetty for big size ships so we disembarked from ship in deep sea far from the island.That was an unique experience.A small boat carried us to island.Upon arrival island we were transferred to a well maintained resort being run by administration of UT Lakshdweep.The resort wad situated at very beautiful and picturesque south tip of the island. Scuba diving at this island is best.We also did snorkeling at beautiful round petty island near the resort.There is no other means to come this island except the cruise.So we were only 80 tourist in this entire island.There is a small aquarium and a museum.We see here a huge Skelton of whale fish.Do not forget to buy T shirts from Govt run hoisery factory.
Beauty of North tip of this island is just mesmerizing.White soft sand,waves from both sides of the tip,sky,azure, turquoise and blue colours of sea are amazing.Beauty of this part of island can not be expressed in words.

Do not go with preconceived notions of a luxurious stay in the ship. It is a 4 night trip and takes you to Kavratti, Minicoy & Kalpeni islands/ lagoons amidst the Arabian sea. While the amenities are basic but neat and without any fuss and frills.
The chaos is the embarkation point but once you are aboard the ship, it is smooth sailing. All the islands are pristine, different shades of blue, excellent marine life, breathtakingly beautiful and quite affordable.
Packed 3 days of the island trips with lots of water sports - kayaking, snorkeling, my favo Scuba, knee boarding, banana boat et al. My 90
We had gone with my father in law who is 90 plus and saw it through these days enjoying it thoroughly without a single compliant - though it was tough coming down from the 5th deck each day and scrambling on to a jetty etc
Get into the spirit and enjoy and savour each moment

I traveled with my husband. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay in our cozy cabin, visits to the decks, food, and visits to the islands. The most thrilling experience was diving in Kalpeni.

Took the trip to Lakshdweep Islands , Kalpeni, Minicoy and Kavaratti, abroad the ship MV Kavaratti, An overall good experience, The islands are blessed with beautiful beaches, and plenty of opportunities for water sports. The ship sails from Cochin and travels in the night to the islands, in the day time tourists are taken to the islands for the activities they wish to do and then back in night to the ship. few pros and cons
Booking experience : Could not do online through , had to go through the agent, though the experience with them was very good,
The boarding experience : The staff is very helpful , place needs signage to guide the visitors , the boarding card etc are issued on first floor but no signage to let anyone know that it is done on the 1st floor.
Sailing time : There is no fixed sailing time as wasted full one day, as were asked to checkin between 9AM to 10AM where as the sailing happened nearly at 8PM, the tourists shld be called only 2 hrs prior to sailing.
The staff on the ship is very very helpful and full marks to them, they try there best to make your journey comfortable and safe.
The cabins are with two bunk beds and attached toilet, comfortable, may not be luxurious,
The beaches at the three islands are beautiful, pristine clear water , again the staff managing the water sports on the island and the arrangements for tourist stay are very well experienced and very courteous and help, Was impressed particularly the attention by the senior person in Minicoy giving personal attention to details.
The charges for the water sports are very reasonable
Tourists may feel little let down by the quality of the food served , on the ship and at resort , which can be improved by giving little more attention.
Overall a very good experience

Samudram ship package booking till December 2019 is already started. MV Kavaratti ship covers 3 islands Minicoy, Kavaratti Kadmat or Kalpeni. LTC claim in Diamond class (First class) is 18,000 per person. Holiday Planet from Cochin is the best tour operator for Lakshadweep. They have ship and flight packages as well. Accommodation at Agatti, Bangaram, Kadmat, Thinnakara, Kavaratti will be arranged by them. A permit is required to visit Lakshadweep. Holiday Planet can be reached on 9747 154 154 in this is their number. It seems few more seats only left in Samudram package as it is fast filling.

Kalpeni Island is the closest island to Kochi. There is only one government resort at the island. There are no private resorts over there. Corals are really sharp there hence beach footwear recommended. Snorkeling was a bit disappointing over there since it was not well organized and people were walking on corals and destroying it. Local cuisine there is good. Best time to travel Nov- Jan.

Hello, Is there any other way to visit multiple Lakshadweep islands , than the Samudram package? I am interested in staying for more than 2-3 days in each island, and Samudram packages from SPORTS does not have that facility.
